...so in a way, if you’re thinking a lot about extraction, I’m thinking a lot about metamorphosis––mhm––or mutation, but something that’s a constant process––mhm––and has the potential to be anything––mhm––especially a pixel, which can really be anything––You used one word, and I use another one––mm––that we can link these colors on this landscape. I was using artificiality and you were using virtuality––yeah artificial and virtual––that’s interesting, because they are different but at some point they can build the same landscape––totally––but at some point they can be––because if you [spreads hands far apart] etymologize virtual, it’s also thinking of almost a copy, it’s not quite the exact thing. And artificial is that, but much more––almost proud––And that for me is bringing the relationship with drag––mhmm drag, what about drag––Virtual and Artificial––mhmm, yeah that I really––many connections––totally, because everything’s in a sense is drag––mm––especially when we consider gender, or language––or movement, bodies, etc. But what I also think is interesting is that plants have kind of been taken away from this idea of having a gender or a sexuality––mhm––because they can constantly metamorphosize, or even asexually reproduce––mhm––so it’s hard to read a plant and assign it a pronoun––mhm––except for “it.” And thinking a lot about pronouns recently––yeah––myself and yourself i think it’s really interesting to me that connection––yeah–– for both of us––Also for other things, which are not a human body, which has or is assigned a gender, like male or female, and when they start to get this reproductive process––exactly––but I mean, that’s––but I think it’s interesting, to think about also how that reproduction happens within drag.

nick von kleist//nvk (syraucse, ny) is a queer, low income, in-debt body. Fluctuating between poet, producer, performer and archive, nvk uses process as a method and carrier bag of collaboration, media, performance, and language to trace, root, and redistribute potentiality. Germinating from language, media, and performance, collecting traces as repertoire to be rehearsed, repeatedly. nvk’s practice focuses on process and metamorphosis, assuming the role(s) necessary for each collaboration. Currently based between Perugia, IT and Mexico City.
